ter robe, and appeared fresh and fair
as youthful beauty in her first ball
dress. The nightingalcs sang amid the
flowers, the syringas and lilacs poured
forth intoxicating perfumes, the mar
cissus. with its great child-like eyes,
gazed out into the poisoning world.
The forests, clothed in tender green,
were vocal with bird songs; and the
drowsy hum of butterflies and beetles,
seemingly drunken with the very de-
light of existence. When nature thus
moved to her fair domain, who could
remain within four narrow walls?
The goal of Arnim's and Desiree's
wanderings was mostly that little rus
tic temple on the hilltop which, with
VANS help. had been very prettily
fitted up. Here Arnim often took his
afternoon coffee or his glass of light
wine-here the two had their little sup
pers, Desiree acting as hostess. Here
with her work in hand she sat in win
dow recess while the doctor read to
her. The tangled tresses of the maid
en-hair, blent with the rich sprays of
the cypress, touched the luxuriant hair
of the young girls head as it bent over
her work, or at some fine passage was
lifted that the beaming eyes might ex-
press the delight for which words were
too poor.
Arnim feared that Marianne might
discover these little feasts, and abrupt
" end them. Absorbed in her own
pursuits, she was not included in their
division of the day. He often gazed
down the path. for the short, rotund
figure in the large garden-hat, and the
dress carefully caught up that it might
escape the ground. But to his relief,
no Marianne ever came.

ways called me?" asked Desiree one
day, as they walked slowly homeward.

Il viii. my child, since the name so
well suits your brightness and mobil-

tired of this place? Is it too lonelE for
you? Does Marianne annoy you by
her exactions? Tell me frankly"
He paused and gazed down upon the
airy figure in the pink dress. She had
thrown off her light summer hat-the
breeze waved back the curls from hen
forehead.

MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS.
Personal Appearance of the Unfortunat
Rival of Elizabeth.

Personal Appearance of the Unfortunate
Rival of Elizabeth.
Her complexion, though likened by
Brantome to alabaster and ivory, does
not seem to have possessed the clear
ness and brilliancy which the compare
son implies; for Sir James Melville,
though anxious to vindicate his Queens
claim to be considered every lovely"
and 'the fairest lady in her country"
acknowledged that she was less
white" than Elizabeth. The bright
ness of her eyes, which BrantOme
likened to stars and Chastelard to bea-
cons, has not been questioned; but
their color is point about which there
is less unanimity, opinions varying be-
tween hazel and dark gray. As regards
her hair, the discrepancy of contem-
porary authorities is even greater.
BrantOme and Ronsard describe a
wealth of golden hair, and this is to a
certain extent confirmed by Sir James
Melville, who, when called upon by
Elizabeth to pronounce whether his
Queens hair was fairer than her own,
answered that ''the fairnes of them
bath was not their worst faltes." To
this, however, must be opposed the
testimony of Nicholas White, who,
writing to Cecil in 1868, described the
Queen as black haired. The explana-
ton of this may possibly lie in Mary's
4 hof 80 inf
about this time. of wearing wigs. In
deed, Knollys informed White that she
wore chair of sundry colors," and, in a
letter to Cecil, praised the skill with
which Mary Seton-"the finest busker
of hair to be seen in any countrywide
set such a curled hair upon the Queen,
that was said to be a perewyke, that
showed very delicately."
According to one account, the Queen
of Scots wore black, according to an
other, auburn ringlets on the morning
of her execution. Both, however, agree
in this, that when the false covering
fell she appeared as gay as if she had
been sixty and ten years old"
Mary's hand was white, but not
small, the long, tapering fingers
mentioned by BrantOme being, in
deed, a characteristic of some of her
portraits. She was of tall stature, tai
Ter than Elizabeth, which made the
Queen of England pronouce her cousin
to be too tall, she herself being, &C
cording to her own standard, "neither
too high nor too low." Her voice was
irresistibly soft and sweet Not only
does Brantome extol it as ''tres douce
ct tres bonne," and Ronsard POLITICALLY
celebrate it as capable of moving rocks
and woods, but Knox, although I'M
graciously and unwillingly. also testi-
fes to its charms. He informs US that
at one of her Parliaments the Queen
made "paynted orison," and that, on

Miss Anne Oppenheim argues that
hair is animal matter, and therefore
concludes that bald-headed men are
the most intellectual, ''they having,
through the exertion of their brains,
exhausted all that is animal in their

rumor that bald-headed men are inva-
riably married to women with high
tempers and nimble fingers.

\ Pittsburg dispatch of the 22d saws:
Trouble Is expected this winter betw cen
the manufacturers and the Amagamated
Association. The manufacturers claim
that within the past few months tue
AmaIgamated Association has made ex-
ira demands upon individual trims
which were unjust. In order to be in Il
position to protect themselves in the
future, 1t Is proposed to form an associa-
ton OF manufacturers on Il closer scale
than ever before attempted. Several
meetings have been held here recently
looking to that end, and it i thought that
the organization Will be perfected very
shortly. 1t is proposed that hereafter
each firm Will not undertake to settle
difficulties on the wage question iudi-
vidually, but that they will depend
upon the combined support of all man
uiacturers. In case of dispute and a
strike is threatened or occurs, the
matter viii be referred to a committee
of manufacturers, who will be cmpow-
cred at all times to take decisive ac-
ton. The amalgamated Association is
in position to make warm fight, and
the members who were spoken to to-
day regarding the report said that they
would do all in their power to prevent
rupture of peaceful relations, but that
they would demand and insist upon

Acting Secretary Thompson was at the
White House and Treasury Department
last night until after midnight, discussing
with the President and the financial
officers OF the treasury the details Of the
new plan for releasing some of the treas

ficers are of the opinion tmat after
the first few days there will
not be any considerable amount
of bonds offered to the gov
eminent but the moral effect of the cir
cular they believe viii be good as the
knowledge that the government stands
ready to purchase $l4 ,0O0,00 of bonds
and throw that amount of money upon
the market will, they say, tend to reas-
sure timid tinanciers.
